Many appreciate the customization options and the controller's overall feel and weight.

The positive feedback on features like customization and feel is frequently offset by negative experiences with controller longevity.

Good product small flaw.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far loving it. The only con I see is the the right stick click is way too sensitive. Little expensive for what it is.

I would recommend this to a friend Worth The Money, If It's Your First Elite
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its my first elite controller and I would say its worth every bit of the price, if it's your first elite controller. If you have a gen 1 elite controller, i would just stick with that, unless you want upgrade. If you're using it for pc, like I am, I recommend getting the Microsoft USB wireless controller adapter. Even though the elite gen 2 has Bluetooth it didn't like staying connected to my pc for more then 15 to 20 minutes, which this isn't too bad because the adapter is only like 25 bucks, but some people may have better luck with it then me.

Big jump in control
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller by recommend getting warranty just to make safe
I would recommend this to a friend - Cons mentioned:Button quality, Stick drift
Worst quality control ive ever experienced
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Since launch, I have returned 7+ controllers due to RB double/triple clicking, A,Y face buttons not registering when pressed, and MAJOR stick drift. Microsoft's quality control for the elite controllers (series 1+2) is non existent. Ive wasted hundreds of dollars purchasing the best buy warranty with every exchange bc i KNOW the issue(s) i mentioned above will be there. Ive now purchased the geek squad package to try to save money. I honestly dont even know what to suggest to those who read this bc i need those paddles now but literally every single controller ive recieved has been defective in a major way..

Best controller on the market
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hands down the best controller on the market. It comes at a premium price but it is a premium product. Will not disappoint.
I would recommend this to a friend A Luxurious Upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm pretty sure this doesn't make me a better gamer but it certainly is a fantastic luxury. I love the back paddles and the variable trigger pulls. I still get tagged in 30 seconds in Halo by 12 year olds who play 8 hours a day but I feel like I'm more competitive and because it's a bit pricey, I'm less likely to fling it across the room in anger . . . at least I hope I'm less likely.
